Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kde-systemsettings
The problem:
File association settings are not found under System Settings -> KDE Components as they are in Control Center -> KDE Components.
This is bad because:
1) These settings do not affect Konqueror only. (The settings are now found only there on a default Kubuntu installation.)
2) Kubuntu now doesn't install Control Center by default, but System Settings instead.
3) The current situation of these settings being accessible only under is clearly not intuitive enough, as instructions for changing file associations under Kubuntu have been asked several times during the last month on Kubuntu and Ubuntu IRC channels.
4) System Settings is a natural place for a user to look for settings that affect behavior of several programs.
Proposed solutions:
1) Add File associations under System Settings -> KDE Components
OR
2) reinstate Control Center as the default program for managing system wide settings under Kubuntu
OR
3) Install both kde-systemsettings and kcontrol as a dependency of kubuntu-desktop.
** Affects: kde-systemsettings (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
